kempeck Posted August 1, 2015 Report Posted August 1, 2015 OS: Win 7 SP1 x64 (completely updated)BT Version: BitTorrent 7.9.3 (build39947) [32-bit]Login: as administrator When a file, or folder is downloaded and saved (no stop and restart) it appears in my destination folder with a lock on it. In BT, I right-click, 'Remove & Delete .torrent', allowing changes to be made as it is not longer is use. I have had issues moving/renaming it and deleting the folder. When trying to delete I get 'The folder is shared with other people. If you delete this folder it will no longer be shared.' To remove the lock I have to do the following with the file/folder:Right-click -> Security -> Edit -> Add (SYSTEM, <username> (<COMPUTERNAME>\<username>), Administrators (<COMPUTERNAME>\Administrators) is all that is listed.) -> Advanced -> Find Now -> Double-Click 'Users' -> OK, OK, OK. Once done the lock is removed, but I still receive the 'If you delete this folder it will no longer be shared.' Any idea how it is that I can stop files from being saved without the lock and without the USER profile on them?
kempeck Posted August 5, 2015 Author Report Posted August 5, 2015 I have updated to BitTorrent 7.9.3 (build 40761) [32-bit]. Still the same issue. No 'USERS' in security profile. Does anyone have any ideas on this? Thanks in advance.
kempeck Posted August 8, 2015 Author Report Posted August 8, 2015 Well, I found a fix. "Take Ownership" http://www.rizonesoft.com/software/ownership/ Allows you to take ownership of a file or folder by right-clicking on it, and choosing Take Ownership in the drop down menu.
